Sounds like your /etc/webmin/miniserv.conf file might be corrupt. What does it contain?

Thanks Jamie... When comparing to other systems, what is below seems to
be very truncated. After attempting another rpm -ivh, with miniserv.conf
moved to a back file... it complained that the file did not exist. So, I
moved it back and copied from on machine to another the parts that
seemed to be missing and I'm back in business.

Yeah, I was going to suggest copying it from another known good machine
of the same type, but you beat me to it.
